Ok, for the sake of argument, let's say I'm a developer, intrigued by your idea, and willing to move to Los Angeles...

What do you bring to the table?

Do you have relevant industry experience?

Do you have valuable connections to advisers, customers, investors, etc?

Do you have experience with branding, marketing, promotion, and/or sales?

What will you be doing while I'm building the site?

Do you know anything about Customer Development?

Have you started Customer Development? If not, why?

Have you founded a startup before?

Do you have experience raising money?

Are you putting in of your own money into this venture?

Can you manage a company? What do you see your role in the venture as being?

Edit: Just to be clear... I'm not in the market to move to LA, but I wanted to point out that these are (among) the questions a potential tech co-founder is going to have. If you have good answers for them, it would be best to go ahead and post them now. As it stands, your post is so light on details that it's not very tempting for a qualified co-founder to reach out to you. Give 'em something to work with...

Im a big thinker, self-confident, self-motivated, very organized and I have good leadership skills but no experience in this industry. I am willing to take risks.

This idea was just planted in my head about 6 months ago and I have been studying how to start and systemize the whole concept and if it's even worth putting my time & effort into it. I understand that I lack the knowledge of coding but I believe so much in the idea and its success that I cant not act upon it! I will do what it takes to get my partner/resources in helping me achieve my vision.

I have not raised any money yet but I do know of many funding companies to submit my proposal to. As soon as I find my tech co-founder then he could help me hash out the idea some more, create my promo video & beta site and start attracting attention!

Yes, I know I have what it takes to manage this company, finding funding sources, keeping the vision, and strategically set goals!

So if anyone is down to get more details and help me perfect this concept, please contact me! I will be waiting patiently by.

& Thank you so much for your very informative & honest response! I really appreciate it.

I agree with everything mindcrime says here. It's not being mean; if you want a technical partner, you need to tell us a lot more about you :)

On top of the above, I'd also need to know how you know your idea will work, such as how many users you have banging down the door to use it right right now, for instance. It's all part of selling your idea :)
